Hi,
I just installed Debian 12 on my desktop pc (mostly for gaming) that has an AMD 7000 series GPU in it. As far as I understand, the GPU drivers for AMD are in the kernel. This leads to my questions about backporting.
1. I want to have as up to date GPU drivers as possible; is backporting the latest kernel the right option for me?
2. I want to have as up to date GNOME wayland session as possible, is this possible with backports?
And lastly, I want to say that I am completely new to backporting so detailed answers on how to do these things would be appreciated, and if there are some other important backports I should do for gaming (mesa maybe?), please let me know.
Thank you.
